After telling Gu Fulan about their plans, Gu Fulan stopped urging Lu Yao to have a baby.
It's just that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not as close as before.
Lu Yao didn't take it to heart.
The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is natural enemies. They don’t seek to have a close relationship, but only seek to live in harmony.
After harvesting the wheat, crushing the wheat, and planting corn, the farm work continued one after another. Duan Mingjie left after eating every day and came back at meal time.
Lu Yao felt distressed, but there was nothing she could do.
They are so conspicuous in the village now that the houses in the county are not as good-looking as theirs.
If you stop doing farm work, you will attract more people’s jealousy and dissatisfaction.
At noon that day, Lu Yao went to the ground to deliver food to Duan Mingjie. On the way back, she met Zheng Jiajia who was enjoying the shade under the shade of a tree.
I saw Zheng Jiajia sitting on a bamboo stool, eating melon seeds, feeling as comfortable as she wanted.
Lu Yao walked over with a smile and stopped in front of her.
"You're pretty good at finding a cool place."
Seeing that it was Lu Yao, Zheng Jiajia stretched out her hand, "Do you want to eat?"
Lu Yao shook her head, "I'm thirsty after eating too much."
Zheng Jiajia took back her hand and said, "It's boring. I'm thirsty and just drink tea."
With that said, Zheng Jiajia patted the seat next to her and motioned for Lu Yao to sit down.
After reading too much these days, Lu Yao was not in a hurry to go back and sat down next to Zheng Jiajia.
Zheng Jiajia took out a handful of raisins from her pocket and said, "Eat this, you won't be thirsty after eating this."
Lu Yao was happy, "You still have a lot of snacks."
"My parents sent it to me." Zheng Jiajia raised her chin at her and said, "Take it away."
Lu Yao took the raisins from her hand and thanked her.
After sitting for a while, let alone, it was really cool.
"I don't mean to complain." Zheng Jiajia suddenly spoke.
Lu Yao blinked in confusion, "What?"
"Your mother-in-law has been very close to Gu Miaomiao recently, and they had a lively chat."
Hearing this, Lu Yao smiled and said, "Maybe they two are more compatible."
Zheng Jiajia turned around and looked at her with a look of hatred, "Are you really not able to tell or are you pretending not to be able to tell?"
Lu Yao smiled helplessly, "There is no difference. My mother-in-law is an independent individual. She has the right to be friends with others. I can't stop her. Besides, Duan Mingcheng will always marry a wife. If Gu Miaomiao If he really wants to marry Duan Mingcheng, I have no power to stop him. He can't marry his wife without my consent."
Zheng Jiajia pursed her lips and said, "That's the truth."
Lu Yao was absolutely right. If it were her, she would do the same thing.
Zheng Jiajia crossed her legs carelessly, "You are in an awkward situation and it's inconvenient to say it. There's nothing I dare not say. Your mother-in-law has been too arrogant recently."
Hearing this, Lu Yao laughed out loud, "As long as she is happy, that's fine. She has been suffering all her life and now she has a good life. It's normal for her to want to show off."
Zheng Jiajia turned to look at her with some admiration, "How do you maintain such a stable mentality? Teach me."
Since marrying Duan Mingjie, Lu Yao seems to have become a different person.
The whole body seemed to be cast into a wall of copper and iron, making it invulnerable except for Duan Mingjie.
Lu Yao looked directly into her black and white eyes, "I don't care. If you don't have hope, you won't be disappointed. Besides, our life is long or short. We can't keep worrying about meaningless things."
Especially after resurrecting her life, her state of mind changed.
Zheng Jiajia leaned back, "I seem to understand."
It seemed that she was overthinking, and Lu Yao was afraid that she had never really cared about Gu Fulan.
Gu Fulan was good to her, and she was good to Gu Fulan. If Gu Fulan took back his love for her, Lu Yao would immediately turn around without any regrets or complaints.
Thinking of something, Zheng Jiajia suddenly asked, "What if, I mean what if, Duan Mingjie did this to you."
Lu Yao shook her head and smiled, very firmly, "He won't."
Zheng Jiajia suddenly felt that Lu Yao was a little desperate at this time. She was sure that Duan Mingjie would always love her, and she never even thought that Duan Mingjie would withdraw his love for her one day.
But that's it, once hurt, it's fatal.
She sincerely hoped that Lu Yao's sincerity towards Duan Mingjie would not be let down.
Zheng Jiajia looked away and looked at the clouds in the distance, "I'm leaving next month."
Hearing this, Lu Yao was startled for a moment, and then asked happily, "Really?"
Zheng Jiajia turned to look at her with a funny expression, "You seem happy when I leave?"
"Of course," Lu Yao was really happy for her, "It's a good thing that you can go back."
In fact, Lu Yao knew that after the matter at Zheng Jiajia's house was settled, she should return to the city.
Zheng Jiajia laughed out loud, "You don't want me to stay, you don't want me to stay. You look like you want me to leave quickly, which makes me very sad."
"This is a good thing. Why should I keep you? It's too late to be happy for you. If we are destined, we will meet again in the future."
Zheng Jiajia nodded, "Okay."
"When do you plan to leave?"
"Next month. My third uncle hasn't given me any preparations yet, but he said it will be soon. It will take at most thirty or forty days."
Lu Yao blinked, "Where are your parents?"
Zheng Jiajia looked at her worried eyes and laughed, "My parents have no future."
Even if her parents were capable, it would not be her turn to go to the countryside.
Lu Yao became even more confused, "Aren't all your family members soldiers?"
"That's all nonsense. I explained it, but people didn't listen. My third uncle is the only one in my family who is a soldier. My third uncle had an accident a few years ago. I won't mention how difficult it was during that time. As for us, we still have In order to respond to the country's call to go to the countryside to build the motherland, my grandma has several grandchildren, but she looks down on us two siblings and insists on my eldest brother coming to the countryside."
This was the first time Lu Yao heard Zheng Jiajia talk about her family background, and she couldn't help but be a little curious.
"Then why is it you who is here?"
After asking these words, Lu Yao remembered the word patriarchal.
"Don't think too much," Zheng Jiajia stopped her thoughts, "My parents and my eldest brother are very good to me. They don't want me to go to the countryside and suffer hardships. In order to prevent me from going to the countryside, my eldest brother secretly signed up , I stopped him."
"Why?"
Zheng Jiajia smiled bitterly, "Because if I go to the countryside, our family still has a chance to get better. If my eldest brother goes to the countryside, our family will be finished for the rest of his life."
Lu Yao disagreed with this statement, "Both men and women are the same. You can't belittle yourself like this."
"Yao Yao, our family's situation is very complicated. It's so complicated that you ordinary people can't imagine it. Even if I don't go to the countryside and stay in the capital, my life will not be easy."
This is the first time Zheng Jiajia calls Lu Yao that way.
"Here, when I open my eyes, I just face a bunch of farm work, but in the capital, my eldest brother faces mountains of swords and seas of fire."
At this point, Zheng Jiajia's eyes turned red and she looked up at the sky pretending not to care, "I admit that I am very selfish and I chose to escape."
